Live: Oppo event at MWC 2019
This week we saw the unveiling of Samsung's Galaxy Fold , and just yesterday Huawei's Mate X was inadvertently leaked . Although only for 24 hours, the spotlight on foldable phones will belong today, if the predictions are correct, to Oppo, a manufacturer whose futuristic offering we also expect to see at a press conference starting in a few hours.
If you want to follow the presentation event of the Oppo terminals directly and almost believe that you are there attending as a public, today we make it a little easier for you. You just have to return to this article at 14:00 p.m. (Spanish time) and press play on the video that you have right below:

Initially, it's expected that the foldable phone Oppo will unveil today will be just a concept , so we wouldn't have any information on availability or approximate price. As for why we know a foldable device is coming , the assumptions stem from the invitation the company itself sent to Chinese media, a document folded in a rather unusual way that triggered all sorts of speculation and rumors—as reported (and shown) by Gizmochina over a month ago.
Both the invitation and the press conference announcement image feature the phrase "Get closer ," a clear reference to the anticipated 10x optical zoom we've discussed previously. Just a few days ago, Oppo itself gave us a first glimpse by zooming in on an image of the Sagrada Familia, so the big question now is whether we're talking about two different phones—the foldable one and the one with optical zoom—or if both features are combined in a single smartphone.

Luckily it is a question that we are going to get out of in just three and a half hours. We are waiting for you here. What do you think, will we see one or two phones from the Chinese house?
